You may think that you have a choice kash but that is down to indoctrination from a very early age. The same as any other religion. The children are brought up in the religious beliefs of their parents. Catholicism used to be like Islam is today, where the religious leaders held complete sway over their followers. Those who fell by the way side were dragged back into line. Hundreds of years ago we were brain washed into believing that unless we didn’t do as we were told we would not go to heaven. Over time we saw through the charade, found that there was no lightning bolt from God if we done wrong and started to question the church. Those who attend the Christian churches today are just hedging their bets, just in case there is something in the belief.
Muslims believe that if they serve Islam, when they die they will sit at the right hand of Muhammad. Thus many gullible Muslims are quite prepared to sacrifice their own life to achieve this aim and thus the suicide bomber is born.
According to my two dictionaries ghetto means – Jewish quarter and/or slum area occupied by a particular group. The OED offers - 1 a part of a city, especially a slum area, occupied by a minority group. 2 historical - the Jewish quarter in a city.
On the other hand enclave means – portion of territory entirely surrounded by foreign land and/or small territory wholly within the boundaries of another. The OED offers - 1 a portion of territory surrounded by a larger territory whose inhabitants are culturally or ethnically distinct. 2 a group that is different in character from those surrounding it: a male enclave.
Thus we cannot refer to Asian immigrant areas as ghettos Gayle and others. Immigrants have taken over the less favourable parts of our towns and cities probably because it was a cheap option. Immigrants, by definition, leave their own country for a better life somewhere else and what we might refer to as a slum they would accept as normal. It is all relative!

If my personal experience is anything to go by the answer yes they do garinda. Some 25 years ago I was a house owner with a mortgage then one day a house on our street went up for sale. The only enquiries the house owner got was from Asian immigrants. Probably because neighbouring streets had a few Asian immigrants living in them. All nice families. Once the house was sold to a very nice Asian couple from Pakistan who were quite friendly and seemed to be part of the community. For months afterwards I had continual enquiries from Pakistani people if my house was for sale when it wasn’t even on the market. Personal circumstances, and not the constant badgering, forced me to sell up and the only enquiries I got were from Asian (Pakistani) immigrants.

Can I ask why certain Muslim individuals believe it is their duty to Islam to blow themselves and many other innocent people up?

It is because of the indoctrinated belief that death in the service of Islam is an automatic path to heaven morgan_brotherz.

No kash you don't, it is done by stealth and ever increasing weight of numbers.
